Alopecia areata is a hair loss condition which usually affects the scalp. It can, however, sometimes affect other areas of the body. Hair loss tends to be rather rapid and often involves one side of the head more than the other. Alopecia areata affects both males and females. This type of hair loss is different than male pattern baldness, an inherited condition. What causes alopecia areata Current evidence suggests that alopecia areata is caused by an abnormality in the immune system. This particular abnormality leads to autoimmunity. As a result, the immune system attacks particular tissues of the body. In alopecia areata, for unknown reasons, the body's own immune system attacks the hair follicles and disrupts normal hair formation. Biopsies of affected skin show immune cells inside of the hair follicles where they are not normally present. What causes this is unknown. Alopecia areata is sometimes associated with other autoimmune conditions such as allergic disorders, thyroid disease, vitiligo , lupus, rheumatoid arthritis , and ulcerative colitis. Sometimes, alopecia areata occurs within family members, suggesting a role of genes and heredity.

In the form of alopecia known as alopecia areata , round bald patches appear suddenly, most often affecting the scalp. However, any hair-bearing area can be affected. Alopecia areata can occur at any age. Alopecia areata Alopecia universalis What causes alopecia areata? Alopecia areata is often discovered by a hairdresser, as there are usually no symptoms. The hair stops growing and then falls out from the roots. Alopecia areata is considered to be one of the autoimmune disorders - lymphocytes aound the hair follicles release chemical messengers (called cytokines) that reject the hair for unknown reasons. Alopecia areata may occur in more than one member of the family, and such families may develop other autoimmune diseases such as pernicious anaemia and vitiligo . It is also more common in patients with chromosomal disorders such as Down's syndrome. Alopecia areata is not contagious and is not caused by any food. Like many other health problems, it sometimes starts after a stressful event, but this is not usually the case.

CAROLYN THIEDKE, M.D., Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, South Carolina A patient information handout on hair loss in women, written by the author of this article, is provided on page 1017. A PDF version of this document is available. Download PDF now (8 pages /150 KB). More information on using PDF files. A lthough alopecia can occur anywhere on the body, it is most distressing when it affects the scalp. Hair loss can range from a small bare patch that is easily masked by hairstyling to a more diffuse and obvious pattern. Alopecia in women has been found to have significantly deleterious effects on self-esteem, psychologic well-being, and body image. See page 907 for definitions of strength-of-evidence levels. Pathophysiology Every hair follicle continually goes through three phases: anagen (growth), catagen (involution, or a brief transition between growth and resting), and telogen (resting). Disorders of alopecia can be divided into those in which the hair follicle is normal but the cycling of hair growth is abnormal (e.g., telogen effluvium) and those in which the hair follicle is damaged (e.g., cicatricial alopecia).

Androgenic Alopecia is a genetically acquired condition leading to the eventual atrophy and failure of the hair and hair follicle and as such is essentially an irreversible process. All topical treatments, whilst clinically proven to reverse hair balding, should be considered as preventative treatments which aim to stabilise an existing precondition. It is not possible to re-grow a full head of hair, removing the action of Androgenic Alopecia. It is also possible that there may be some other cause of baldness in men and women and in these cases expert help should be sought.
